that’s the weekend rumour at least. Gotta be the biggest pile of horseshit I’ve heard in ages. He’s 35 and do you honestly think fatty will sanction that deal?
I think another more experienced keeper would be a good acquisition. Reina’s value can’t be more than 2 million max.
We will not pay £10mill for ANY player............... Ashley would think Ronaldo or Messi were too expensive at that price.
Too much for his age and what he has left on his contract. He is still good though. Having said that and I've mentione it before I cannot work out this obsession with getting a new keeper. It's not even worth the wasted effort thinking about when we need forwards about a million times more.
**** this, seriously. We aren't getting anyone in this window other than on loan. We just aren't. Stop worrying about players being too old or expensive and accept the fact that if they are recognised professional footballers we're simply not interested in paying for them. I actually thought we'd scrape survival this season but I'm now resigned to us slipping down the league and going back down - it's dire, just utterly abject. Move along, there's nothing to see here.
Benitez is obviously a long-term fan of Reina, but I think that fee sounds a bit high. Darlow could develop but we honestly need a better team in front of the GK before buying a new one.
